Default suggestion: auto-fail/restart on "not a high score"?

i like the idea of the autofail having a setting that activates if you can no longer get a high score on the song. currently it is possible to do this by having to remember what my high score is on every single song so that i could set it on each individual song in the autofail whenever i play it

the feature would be a little checkmark below the auto-fail that says "non-PB" or something

I believe this is actually a feature that got added to the most recently released version of the engine: https://www.flashflashrevolution.com/download/

I haven't used it myself, but there should be a checkbox in the auto-fail section of the options with "personal best" mode.

Update your game, it's a thing. You can also turn the raw goods tracker into a personal best tracker, which is what I personally use.

Did you have to fix the PB mode stuff? Or was it just the "Can improve Skill Rating" filter, which used the top 50 scores bit (UpdateSRList) that didn't behave if users hadn't played 50 songs?

also, rude

If you had <50 songs played the game would crash on load if it wasn't a guest, or any time the game would update the list of top 50 equivs.

Right, but that was the "can improve Skill Rating" filter that ran that, the actual PB mode didn't use that as it just got your best on that file and then auto-set the auto-fail value.
